📖 A Powerful Meeting for a Historic Cause 🇺🇸
I had a great meeting with PA State Rep. Stephanie Borowicz and Pastor Stephen Coleman as we brainstormed exciting plans for “The Day of the Bible” in Pennsylvania!
We`re commemorating the September 1782 Aitken Bible—the first English Bible printed in America, authorized, purchased, and endorsed by Congress during the Revolutionary War in Philadelphia.
🙏 Calling all prayer warriors across the Commonwealth—stand with us in fervent prayer as we move forward with this historic initiative!
Together, we can make a lasting impact and honor the Bible’s role in the foundation of our freedoms.

📍 Pennsylvania State Capitol | Standing for the Right to Life
Today, I stood proudly in the Capitol to defend the most fundamental right of all — the right to life. Thank you PA State Rep. Stephanie Borowicz for hosting this event!
Every life is sacred. Every child is a gift. And every heartbeat matters.
As your Senator, I will continue to be a voice for the voiceless and fight for policies that protect the unborn, support mothers, and uphold the dignity of human life at every stage.
🟦 We will not be silent. We will not back down.
🟥 Life is worth defending — in the womb and beyond.
